As far as this week's movies (that I've seen) Warfare>Sacramento>Drop>King of Kings>The Amateur {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Apr 07, 18:11

Where would you put Minecraft {nm} Abraxas Apr 07, 19:56

Probably around the King of Kings level. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Apr 07, 20:32

There's a Warfare IMAX screening this Wednesday night; thinking about that one. Would IMAX be good for this one you think? {nm} goodvibe61 Apr 07, 20:08

Sure, I mean, it's not as big a movie as Civil War (Garland's, not the Russos') or Black Hawk Down.... TheWeekendWarrior Apr 07, 20:33

So Who Saw What Last Week? tealfan Apr 07, 14:37

White Lotus finale (D+ for dumb. Parker Posey was worth slogging through the rest of the season but only barely) {nm} uncle michelle Apr 07, 15:14

I haven't watched the finale but it was not a good season. It should have been 6 episodes, tops. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Apr 07, 15:35

I enjoyed it more than the previous 2 seasons. {nm} Antibody Apr 07, 16:00

Palindromes (actually aged pretty well) B, Midnight Cowboy A {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Apr 07, 15:36

Nothing new; however: Princess Mononoke: A+ Always staggering, IMAX incredible. And: Terriers (2010); A; as good as everyone said it was. goodvibe61 Apr 07, 19:33

I love Princess Mononoke, but I'm assuming they're not mentioning that Neil Gaiman did the translation for the subtitled version. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Apr 08, 07:56

I didn't particularly notice; I DID see the subtitled version too. Maybe I need to wake up or something. {nm} goodvibe61 Apr 08, 10:42

DL: Um, guys, KING OF KINGS already has 7.8+ million in presales, outpacing SOUND OF FREEDOM notfabio Apr 07, 14:19

Bloomberg: Lucas Shaw: Mary Parent, Brian Robbins. Tom Rothman, Scott Stuber names in the hat as studio chief notfabio Apr 07, 12:39

UnBox: JACK RYAN movie set video. As far as I know, wasn't a part of Amazon MGM's CinemaCon presentation so leaning towards Amazon Prime. notfabio Apr 07, 10:56

Delta House is sometimes startled by how one movie can move markets and influence portfolios. After 25 years, we should probably know better SenJohnBlutarsky Apr 07, 10:51

It's a pretty efficient market, as it is right a LOT more than it is wrong. ndmaster Apr 07, 11:34

It is a fine market and an entertaining pastime. And an accurate gauge of intelligence, judgment, moral worth, and looks {nm} SenJohnBlutarsky Apr 07, 11:38

Remove share limits so that a port could theoretically be 100% Minecraft? {nm} RamsFan2004 Apr 07, 13:02

Sure, it would get to fair value sooner, so I could sell my shares. ndmaster Apr 07, 14:50

It would be a very different game. I'm not sure it would change it for the better. {nm} RamsFan2004 Apr 07, 15:42

But, would it be more accurate? ndmaster Apr 07, 16:00

Sure, but it would become a question of which hot stock each week to go all-in on. The prices of smaller stocks will all be in-accurate. {nm} RamsFan2004 Apr 07, 16:02

Maybe for a short while, but the market would adjust to it. Inaccuracies are inefficiencies that traders can and will take advantage of to ndmaster Apr 07, 17:17

If you can buy a huge volume up to the "target" price, then it'll fall by a huge volume when you sell your shares. {nm} Antibody Apr 07, 17:24

That's not what I said. Ramsfan said if someone else bought a huge amount of shares, then I could sell my small number of shares ndmaster Apr 07, 17:49

You didn't say "small {nm} Antibody Apr 07, 19:14

I assumed. Sorry {nm} ndmaster Apr 07, 23:13

Fall Guys 2030, Civilization 2031, Elden Ring 2032 {nm} budice Apr 07, 09:20

Will the call of duty movie get the go ahead now? Also GTA is a contender, but I doubt the studio allows it while it's still hot MattW Apr 07, 10:19

They key is to make these movies PG. Neither of those would go that route. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Apr 07, 10:54

Yeah, Fortnite undoubtedly is going to go for PG-13 when/if it happens, they would never would hear the end of it for COD/GTA. {nm} notfabio Apr 07, 11:16

Hear me out... Grand Theft Mariokart! {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Apr 07, 11:17

Avengers: Nintendo {nm} budice Apr 07, 12:09

Yep. ROBLOX is another PG rated sandbox IP. Antibody Apr 07, 11:50

Tetris could be PG or G even {nm} MattW Apr 07, 17:04

it's almost two years since Barbie made a billion dollars and still waiting on any other toy IP to even get on the radar {nm} uncle michelle Apr 07, 11:21

Toys, video games, comic books, fairy tales -- what does this say about movies and audiences? SenJohnBlutarsky Apr 07, 11:41

When things get bad, people want their entertainment to be comforting. Things are REALLY bad right now, no surprise this did really well. Decoman Apr 07, 12:34

Battleship would do gangbusters for sure {nm} MattW Apr 07, 16:35

Have to imagine at some point Super Smash Bros/Kingdom Hearts (maybe the JFAVR rumor is true) happens. notfabio Apr 07, 12:33

DL: Death Stranding finally has a director, Michael Sarnoski Antibody Apr 07, 07:25

It's rare for studios to debut trailers on a Monday morning, or even Saturday. {nm} Antibody Apr 07, 06:58
